Where it fits in smart glasses
Dedicated smart-glasses eye-tracking platform (one camera and one LED per eye, ML gaze model), with reference designs, mechanical design guidance and evaluation kits; no named glasses customer.
What the evidence establishes
Smart-glasses evidenceMarketed for smart glasses; no named customer. Tobii offers a dedicated glasses eye-tracking platform with reference designs and evaluation kits.
An explicit smart-glasses product, design-in, supply role, program, application page or partnership, including wrist or ring input sold with glasses. For a device maker, it means the company’s own glasses, not a supplier relationship. This does not establish revenue, market share, volumes or future sourcing.

Keep in perspective
No design win: on its Q2 2026 call Tobii said it was not ready to announce anything in smart glasses. It is a small company.
Specialist business exposure. This describes the breadth or role of the business; it is not an investment rating. A smart-glasses product, design-in or partnership does not by itself establish material glasses revenue, market share, or future returns.
Connections to the assembly
These links explain the technology relationship. The model is illustrative and does not represent an actual manufacturer’s bill of materials.
Eye-tracking camera & IR LEDs
Premium AR designs such as Meta Orion add small inward-facing IR cameras and near-infrared LEDs for gaze input. Ray-Ban Meta-class glasses do not have them. Infrared is invisible, so the model shows it in magenta.
Scope of the company links: Eye-tracking sensors, IR illuminators and platforms marketed for smart glasses (OmniVision OG0TC, ams OSRAM FIREFLY IR LEDs, Tobii’s glasses platform, TDK AIsight), with no named mass-market design win. Ray-Ban Meta-class glasses have no eye tracking. Himax’s WiseEye glasses customer and its function are undisclosed, so Himax stays at sector level.
